He was with his wife at the play

instant of despair and bewilderment;
and then he snatched covering form

him. 1t chanced that the friend had
just been divorced from his wife, and
little Annie, who had heard some-
thing about it, was curious to know
more. "Why didn't you bring your
wife with you, Mr.. Todd 2" asked
Annie when they were all seated at
the table. The guest blushed and
stammered. and said that he hadn't
any now. Then Annie, in spite of
admonitory scowls from papa and
mamma, continued: What did you
get divorced from her for ?" "Well.
Annie, don't you think it is BETTER"
